A New Beginning and Learning Experience - Dominican Republic

If I could I would go to the top of the highest mountain and proclaim, "If you want it...Get it!!". Whatever it is. Just go do it. I am a 44yo Black Woman. I am a Family Medicine Doctor in Alaska I have wanted to do this surgery for at least 15yrs but one thing or the other has gotten in the way. Finally I had several consults in WPB, FL in June. The last Doctor made me feel right at home. However, the quote was 12K. What bothered me the most was that 1 night in the hospital cost 5K and I knew they weren't going to do much for me. I went back to work and told my nurse, who had surgery with Dr. Sesto, what I was planning. She asked if I had money to burn. She had surgery on Nov 19 2013 and just looks amazing, my Spanish is definitely lacking and where was I going to stay for the 10-14 day recovery and follow up? But paying 5K for a hospital night was bothering me. I got her surgeon info Whatsapp him my photos and other vital info, we spoke a few times. His office referred me to Raysa's House for recovery, and I made my appt. I knew I wanted this surgery but boy oh boy when I woke up it was more than I every anticipated. I looked down and there was no tire, it even looked like I had a breast job done they were so much more pronounced. I was treated like a queen at Raysa's House with 3 meals daily and daily massages.

Every months since the surgery is better than the one before. I don't know how much smaller my waist can get. I have more confidence than every. The most beneficial part of having surgery outside of the U.S. was the post op care. 2 days post op I was getting massages (Lymphatic Drainage Massage). They were not fun but I could tell my inflammation was down when I would urinate 6-10 times after the treatment and I wasn't even drinking that much water. I was only able to stay at the recovery house for 10 days due to my schedule and really having the strength to return to work earlier than expected. Upon arriving back in West Palm Beach where I was going to convalesce for 10 more days; I wanted to continue the massages. Well I first made the mistake of going to Massage Envy. Have you ever anticipated something, had a picture in your mind and then was so absolutely disappointed? Fill in the blank with whatever you want... That was my experience at Massage Envy. I went home and got back on line and found my savior Claudia in west palm beach. I suggest you stay in WPB a few days in a cheap hotel to get more treatments if at all possible. Well I am 7 months out and my waist went from 45+ to 29.5; I went from my biggest 258.5 lbs to 170 lbs.
